    To make a 404 page manually...

    1. Download the .htaccess file from your server - it'll be in the root
    2. Edit with a text editor and add this at the end:
    ErrorDocument 404 /err404.html
    Code (markup):
    3. Create a web page and will be your 404 web page
    4. Upload as err404.html into the root of your server

    btw "err404.html" is just the name I chose - call it what you want but what you have in .htaccess and the name you have as the file itself MUST be exactly the same.

    ErrorDocument 404 /404.html

    404.html file should be in the root folder of your domain.
